The correct option is A.
Popular sovereignty refers to the principle that government is created and sustained by the consent of the people through their elected representatives, who are the real source of political power. Thus, those chosen to govern must exercise their given power in conformity with the general will of the people. <span />

Answer: Popular sovereignty

Popular sovereignty is the idea that the power and authority of the state derive from the consent of the people, who are the source of all political power. This was a very important principle in the Enlightenment period, based on the political philosophy of Rousseau, Hobbes and Locke. It was also a concept adopted by the Founding Fathers, and it continues to be the basis of democracy in America.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a) 214 in

b) 18 feet

Explanation:

Arc length formula = 2πr×∅/360°

Given r= 48 in  and ∅=255° then

Arc length = 2×3.14×48×255°/360° =213.62 = 214 in

Changing inches to feet, you divide inch value by 12

214/12 =17.80 = 18 feet

This beetle feeds on cotton buds and is credited with devastating the cotton growing areas of the south
hoa [83]

It is sometimes a minor pest of cotton, feeding mostly on young shoots, piercing the stems and sucking the sugar-rich juices intended for shoot growth. It has been known to cause the introduction of a fungus, which rots the cotton boll. Nymphs feed on seeds in very small bolls or in opening bolls.

The boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis) is a beetle which feeds on cotton buds and flowers. Thought to be native to Central Mexico,[1] it migrated into the United States from Mexico in the late 19th century and had infested all U.S. cotton-growing areas by the 1920s, devastating the industry and the people working in the American South. During the late 20th century, it became a serious pest in South America as well. Since 1978, the Boll Weevil Eradication Program in the U.S. allowed full-scale cultivation to resume in many regions.

Adult weevils overwinter in well-drained areas in or near cotton fields,and farms after diapause. They emerge and enter cotton fields from early spring through midsummer, with peak emergence in late spring, and feed on immature cotton bolls.


The boll weevil lays its eggs inside buds and ripening bolls (fruits) of the cotton plants. The female can lay up to 200 eggs over a 10- to 12-day period. The oviposition leaves wounds on the exterior of the flower bud. The eggs hatch in 3 to 5 days within the cotton squares (larger buds before flowering), feed for 8 to 10 days, and finally pupate. The pupal stage lasts another 5 to 7 days. The lifecycle from egg to adult spans about three weeks during the summer. Under optimal conditions, 8 to 10 generations per season may occur.
